Drive: FOX Hijacks Last Two Episodes

by Trevor Kimball, July 6, 2007

The FOX drama Drive was pulled from the schedule after only two weeks and four episodes. The network had ordered 13 episodes but, when the ratings fell short of expectations, the series was cancelled and only six were completed.

Two months ago, FOX announced the final two episodes of Drive would air on July 4th. Last week, they rescheduled the episodes for Friday, July 13th.

FOX has now removed the episodes from their schedule entirely and isn’t expected to air them at all. The press release simply states, “The previously announced Drive episodes are no longer scheduled to air.” It is a strong possibility that the network will post them online or make them available via Amazon.com and iTunes sometime soon. We’ll keep you posted so stay tuned!

LAST TWO episodes? Yeah, last two filmed episodes shown at myspace. STILL no actual conclusion to anything at all. Someone at FOX really does need to reconsider what they do to viewers with these shows that require time to develop and run a course. Either be willing to stay the course, or don’t leave the harbor!
